Abstract:

Nitrogen\|rich g-C₃N₄ nanobelts were  synthesized via the pyrolysis of melamine (C₃N₆H₆). The as\|synthesized microbelts are structurally uniform, and each belt is uniform in width and thickness along its length direction. The typical width is in a range of 3 μm to 6  μm. The typical length of the belts is in a range of several hundreds of micrometers, some of which  even have a length of millimeters. The structure and morphology were researched by XRD, SEM, CEA and XPS measurement. The result indicates the sample is graphite-C₃N₄. 

Key words: pyrolysis, melamine, preparation; , banded compounds, graphite phase C₃N₄
